MINISTRY OF EDUCATION AND TRAINING VINH UNIVERSITY - o0o - DƯƠNG THỊ THANH MI-BASED TEACHING AND ITS EFFECT ON EFL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS’ AUTONOMY FIELD: THEORY AND METHODOLOGY OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING Code: 60140111 MASTER THESIS IN EDUCATION Supervisor: Dr Trần Thị Ngọc Yến Rationale OUTLINE Aims of the Study Research Questions Literature Review Research Design and Methodology Findings Conclusion RATIONALE One of the most important ways to improve learners’ autonomy An Students’ effective low way to autonomy explore students’ own potentials Ineffective traditional teaching method AIMS OF THE STUDY To find out whether MIbased teaching is more effective than the traditional way of teaching lessons To explore whether students can improve their autonomy through MIbased lessons To examine the impacts of MI teaching on learners’ autonomy and EFL high school students’ English proficiency RESEARCH QUESTIONS Will MI-based teaching help to develop EFL high school students' autonomy? How does MIbased teaching affect EFL high school students’ English proficiency?
